We Agreed, No Strings Attached

I spent a good hour in All Time Low’s dressing room, but now I was in my own. I heard a beep go off on my phone, telling me that is was time for my live stream. Ever since I released my first album, I have been live streams daily, and it has been so fun getting to interact with my fans, and seeing the number of people who join to watch me.

I grabbed my computer off the little table in my room and turned it on, going to straight to Twitter and posting.

Hey everyone! Click this link and come watch my live stream that is about to start up! www.younow.com/JoellaKurt

After tweeting the link, I went straight to my live stream website and clicked ‘Go Live’, already being set to go live in a couple of minutes, and thousands of people were already in the chat. I got up and grabbed a bottle of water, along with my bowel of fruit salad, and got back to my little couch just as the person in front of me got voted down, and I was about to be on. “Hey everyone! How are you?!” I said with so much excitement. Yes, doing streams daily was a big toll on me, but my fans made me happy, and they understood if I couldn’t make it to a couple of streams due to personal stuff. “Hold on a second guys, let me snapchat the stream and tell everyone to come join us.” I reached over and grabbed my phone off the table, and brought up the app.

“Hey snapchat world! I’m currently doing my daily live stream, go to the link posted right here and come join us!” I smiled and then turned the camera the other way so that it would show the chat. Once the ten second recording was done, I typed out my link onto it and set it as my story. “So everyone how have ya been?” I smiled into my webcam as I read all the comments that were coming through. “Aw, I love you guys, too.” Once every two weeks, I share a new song with them on here, never with the music, just my vocals alone, and today was the day that I was going to share another song with them. “Okay, let me just get my notebook to see which one I’ll share with you guys today.” I laughed and got up from the couch, walking over to my bag and grabbing out my lyric book.

I turned the pages, trying to find the perfect song for today. I wish I’d planned which song I was going to do, but I was always that type of person who waited till the last minute to do and turn in their essay of whatever. But, I was pretty sure I had a great idea of what song I was going to do, so, once I saw the song on the page, I smiled. “Okay everyone, this song is called Rock And Roll Thugs.” I took a deep breath and started singing.

The music is in my blood, you don't understand
The music is in my blood, you don't understand

Sleepless nights at the black and white keys
I'll let my fingers say it for me
Sometimes my spirit's still so scared
Once I put it in a melody it means so much more to me
Fate sealed, I guess this is how I feel
Sometimes I swear the lyrics write me
The lyrics write me

The melody a remedy to calm me down
You never did approve of the fix I found

Bury all the records in the backyard,
When you're not looking I'll go dig them back up
You can bury my body in the backyard,
When you're not looking I'll go dig myself up
And I know all about the drugs they hide inside the music, I know, I know
I know all about the drugs they hide inside the music

And the preacher at church must've told you about them too
'Cause you came home dead set on what you had to do
You said the demons and drugs hide in rock n roll thugs
If I wanna grow up nice, I better give the music up

The melody a remedy to keep me right
You never did approve of my sleepless nights

Bury all the records in the backyard,
When you're not looking I'll go dig them back up
You can bury my body in the backyard,
When you're not looking I'll go dig myself up
And I know all about the drugs they hide inside the music, I know, I know
I know all about the drugs they hide inside the music

Oh the words unwind, my hands rebel
I hide behind these notes too well
I can't pretend anymore

You're not listening, you don't understand
You're not listening, you don't understand
You're not listening, you don't understand
You're not listening, you don't understand

Bury all the records in the backyard,
When you're not looking I'll go dig them back up
You can bury my body in the backyard,
When you're not looking I'll go dig myself up

Bury all the records in the backyard,
When you're not looking I'll go dig them back up
You can bury my body in the backyard,
When you're not looking I'll go dig myself up
And I know all about the drugs they hide inside the music, I know, I know
I know all about the drugs they hide inside the music

I finished the song and looked at the comments everyone was saying. I was happy to see all the compliments the song was getting. “This song has to be my favorite I have written lately, and it means a lot to me, so thank you, everyone really you're too kind.” I couldn’t help but let my smile show through, everyone was just saying nice words after nice words. I loved the feeling my fans gave me, and I loved them so much.

“Great song, Ella.” I turned around and saw Jack entering into my dressing room. “I was watching your stream, and I thought I would come in and tell you in person.”

“Haha, well thanks Jack. Come on over here, I’m sure the fans would love for you to join the stream.” He happily came over to the couch and sat next to me, well, I thought he was sitting, until he put his legs over the side of the couch and put his head on my lap. I laughed and patted his head. “Cute Jack, really cute.”

“Why thank you, I know I am.”

“Selfish fuck.”

“I know.” We both laughed again and read all the comments that the viewers were saying, “I like this one. ‘We all know that Joke is a real thing, so just have babies already.’ I think my favorite thing is, that our ship name is Joke.”

“Yeah, its a joke alright. Guys, Jack and I will never have babies.”

“Can we at least fuck?”

“No.”

“Damn.”

“Nice try Barakat,” I paused and giggled, “Alright everyone, so I’ll have to cut this stream a bit short, you guys know that they are normally two hours long, but today I only had spare time for one hour. So, we will see you guys tomorrow. And if you are coming to the show tonight, get ready for one hell of a start! Bye my loves!” I pressed the end button on the screen.

“Bye everyone!” Jack shouted before it completely came to an end. “Do I have to get off of you now?”

“Yes. I want to finish my fruit salad before I go on stage in an hour and a half, plus I promised Jules I would watch her set, which should be starting in a couple minutes. So let’s go Barakat. Get up, let’s go to the stage.”
